SPIRAL students explored Chinese paper folding or Zhezhi! Trying new things helps our brains grow.🌱 @MsAKopczynski @Sbisd #Bendwood #SBISDProud #Zhezhi

Preparing to head back to school can be a stressful time for #gifted students and their families. What strategies do you suggest to help alleviate the stress and allow for a smooth transition from summer to school?

Spring Branch ISD students in Houston far outperformed state averages on the STAAR tests this year, and learning losses from COVID-19 were significantly less than those in many other districts across the state. #txed bit.ly/3vOxyUH

SBISD will close tomorrow, Wednesday, Aug. 26 and Thursday, Aug. 27, and there will be no student instruction due to the potential impact of Hurricane Laura on the greater Houston Area. Please take precautions and monitor springbranchisd.com and our social media channels.

Thank you- this couldn’t be more true. Very much appreciate the public acknowledgement of how very difficult this is. We are all doing our best- no easy answers. Grateful for those choosing to suspend judgement. @drgoffney @m_salazarzamora @jenny_mcgown @R4exd
A plea to anyone who needs to hear it: have an ounce of humility before you launch into criticism of education leaders right now. I’ve worked in both K-12 & higher ed for 25 years. From a systems design & planning perspective I’ve never seen anything remotely this complex.
